...to get notes down in every class so that I can understand the material. Next the book talks about demoting assignments, and how you should choose which assignments to do over others. If you have multiple sources to read for a paper then you should only read the most credible sources so you get the important material and don’t read the same thing multiple times. I have not had a class yet that gives out multiple reading assignments for a paper. The book gives a good a good example that I would use if I did have and assignment that was like that. I think it would make sure I get everything that I need to know. Next the book talks about making a study guide for your classes. They talk about ripping out your notes and putting them together by topic. Then they say to make questions for the study guides so you can answer them to study from. I mark at the top of the...

Why I Prefer to Use Machines Instead of Hands

...hands since they think it will be more reliable and trustful. As a student, I prefer to do work by machines instead of hands especially when I am doing work for school. One vital beneficial of technology is it’s convenient and much easier and faster than human hands. Being a student at school, there is tons of work everyday. Each teacher will require work such as writing an essay or finishing some study guide. I have been using computer for several years, and my typing speed is much faster than when I doing the same thing by hands. Writing by hands turns to be some tougher work to me since I have use computer instead of hands for a long time and I definitely know which way is easier. For example, I had two study guides last semester for world history and biology. There were abundant of knowledge needing to memorize for both of them. However, my world history teacher required us to use pen and gave us the reason that writing by hands is better for people to memorize things. But the results turned out that I did better in biology test. I only took about 30 minutes to finish the study guide since I had all the separate notes of each chapter for biology while I took almost the whole day to finish world history. The...

...Module 1 Introduction to financial risk management (FRM) Financial Risk Management Module 1 Introduction to financial risk management Question 1 In 2009 which organisation posted the biggest corporate loss in US history and in the same month announced staff bonuses in excess of USD 450 million? a. b. c. d. American International Group (AIG). Lehman Brothers. General Motors. Merrill Lynch. Question 2 The Gig, an Australian heavy metal band, has decided to let its fans invest in the music industry and guaranteed that for every $100 invested in The Gig Music Fund they will get a monthly dividend of $12.00. After six months $20 million has been invested and the depositors have all received $12.00 a month. A spokesman announced that the band needs to raise an additional $5 million to fund a new album and offers music lovers $15 per month for every new $100 invested. Your parents are aware you are completing a financial risk management course and ask your advice as to whether or not to invest. You respond: a. b. c. d. The Gig has a proven track record of paying dividends so go ahead with the investment. The new album is a guaranteed success, so there is little risk involved. This appears to be a Ponzi scheme so reject the offer. Everyone so far has made money and hundreds of people have already done their research, so it is a quality investment.

...2008 FRM® Examination  Study Guide  Topic Outline, Readings, Test Weightings    The Study Guide sets forth primary topics and subtopics under the five risk‐related disciplines covered in the FRM exam.  The  topics  were  selected  by  the  FRM  Committee  as  topics  that  risk  managers  who  work  in  practice  today  have  to  master. The topics are reviewed yearly to ensure the FRM exam is kept timely and relevant.    FRM Examination Approach  The FRM exam is a practice‐oriented examination. Its questions are derived from a combination of theory, as set forth in  the readings, and “real‐world” work experience. Candidates are expected to understand risk management concepts and  approaches and how they would apply to a risk manager’s day‐to‐day activities.  The FRM examination is also a comprehensive examination, testing a risk professional on a number of risk management  concepts and approaches. It is very rare that a risk manager will be faced with an issue that can immediately be slotted  into one category. In the real world, a risk manager must be able to identify any number of risk‐related issues and be  able to deal with them effectively.    Readings  Questions for the FRM examination are derived from the readings listed under each topic outline.  These readings were  selected by the FRM Committee to assist candidates in their review of the subjects covered by the exam. It is strongly  suggested that candidates review these readings in depth prior to sitting for the exam...
